A fan claims that Rihanna DM’d them and informed them that Kanye West is no longer executively producing her ‘ANTI’ album. Maybe this is another reason the album’s release is still delayed. Back in the fall Rihanna explained that she was waiting on Kanye so she could finish the album, and the hold up was their conflicting schedules. Apparently Rihanna occasionally DMs some of her biggest fans from time to time, and she DM’d one saying

“And FYI Kanye is not EP’ing ANTI we’re both working on our own projects right now.”

Ye is a great producer, but do you feel like he was needed on the project? Why would she tell the fan instead of making a public announcement? Beyond the schedules, we wonder if they clashed with ego too.
